ac1a42f4e4 vdso: Remove remnants of architecture-specific time storage
All users of the time releated parts of the vDSO are now using the generic
storage implementation. Remove the therefore unnecessary compatibility
accessor functions and symbols.

365841e155 vdso: Add generic architecture-specific data storage
Some architectures need to expose architecture-specific data to the vDSO.

Enable the generic vDSO storage mechanism to both store and map this
data. Some architectures require more than a single page, like LoongArch,
so prepare for that usecase, too.

51d6ca373f vdso: Add generic random data storage
Extend the generic vDSO data storage with a page for the random state data.
The random state data is stored in a dedicated page, as the existing
storage page is only meant for time-related, time-namespace-aware data.
This simplifies to access logic to not need to handle time namespaces
anymore and also frees up more space in the time-related page.

In case further generic vDSO data store is required it can be added to
the random state page.

df7fcbefa7 vdso: Add generic time data storage
Historically each architecture defined their own way to store the vDSO
data page. Add a generic mechanism to provide storage for that page.

Furthermore this generic storage will be extended to also provide
uniform storage for *non*-time-related data, like the random state or
architecture-specific data. These will have their own pages and data
structures, so rename 'vdso_data' into 'vdso_time_data' to make that
split clear from the name.

Also introduce a new consistent naming scheme for the symbols related to
the vDSO, which makes it clear if the symbol is accessible from
userspace or kernel space and the type of data behind the symbol.

The generic fault handler contains an optimization to prefault the vvar
page when the timens page is accessed. This was lifted from s390 and x86.
